This chapter continues in the tale of Robert and Emmy, two lonely people who connected in a cooking class. In Chapter One this pair became close and shared brief moments of intimacy. Chapter Two told of their growing relationship, emotionally and sensually, including their shared phone sex, lust filled fantasies about one another, and future plans for a date. Chapter Three described their phenomenal first date, including dinner, making sweet love for the first time, and spending the night in each other’s arms. During Chapter Four, the couple enjoyed a motorcycle trip and then Emmy came back and left her husband for good, after their affair was discovered. In this chapter, Robert and Emmy have gone away to enjoy a romantic few days in a mountain cabin, giving them time to plan their life together.
We awoke to the rather noisy birds greeting the sunrise and new day. I found my morning wood nestled between Emmy’s ass cheeks for the second time this week but we opted to get up and get a start on our day. The shower in the master bedroom of Melanie’s cabin was smaller than mine at home, but it was fun, nonetheless. We playfully lathered each other up and rinsed off before getting dressed for a bike ride. We hit the kitchen and had some fruit and juice for breakfast.
Once we finished showering and got dressed, I filled both of our water bottles and pushed the bikes out to the driveway, next to my SUV. When Emmy was ready, we put on our helmets and I said, “Let’s stick to the roads and shoulders for today, OK?”
She agreed and said, “I’d just as soon build up to riding trails. I haven’t done much riding lately.”
We walked outside and took our first deep breath of morning mountain air.
Emmy said, “Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up to this kind of scenery every morning?”
I agreed with her and we headed down the road in a more or less northerly direction while Emmy got used to the bike and it’s various controls. We stopped once to adjust Emmy’s bike seat height, enjoyed a little water and made out a few minutes before continuing.
She said, “Honey, I love my new bike. This so much fun! I wish we could do it more often.”
I said, “Before I started the cooking class and met you, weather permitting, I used to go on rides 2 or 3 times a week after work and usually one nice long ride on either Saturday or Sunday. You know it would be really easy to join me on those rides if you lived a little closer.”
She hit the brakes and we stopped. She looked me in the eyes and said, “A little closer . . . or with you?”
I said, “Well, given those two options, I think you know what my choice would be! But wouldn’t it be nice to cook all our meals as a couple, go biking or running, we’d have the pool – and I’ve got to tell you, after last night, I have a feeling I’m going to be shopping for hot tubs soon, too.”
She looked me in the eyes and said, “You know Robbie, I really planned on waiting a while, even though I knew this is where we were headed. I do love you, I know you love me and I want to spend much more time together than we can now – be careful or you might end up with a housemate before long.”
We kissed again and continued our ride, discussing the pros and cons of living under the same roof. She asked me about ‘expenses’ and I told her, being a gentleman, I’d never expect her to contribute to household expenses and that I hoped she’d use her income to make herself happy. Spending it as she saw fit, on things she wanted for her or us, and let me take care of everything we ‘need’.
Our ride continued and we were now just enjoying a leisurely bike ride in the wilderness and talking. We had been gone about an hour and fifteen minutes and I suggested going on another fifteen minutes or so, then turning back. Emmy agreed and we kept going. Just up past the next curve we passed a driveway on the left and Emmy spotted the sign first.
She said, “Oh, can we stop and look at them?”
I said, “What?”
She pointed out the hand painted sign that said ‘AKC St. Bernard pups for sale’ and listed a phone number.
I said, “This fate thing is getting spooky!”
There was a big gate across the driveway, with an intercom panel and a keypad mounted on a post next to the driveway that could probably open the gate if the right code were entered. I pushed the ‘call’ button and a lady answered, “Can I help you?”
Emmy spoke right up and said, “Hi. My boyfriend and I are staying at a house down the road for the weekend and while on a bike ride, we noticed the sign for the St. Bernard puppies. Is there any chance we could look at them?”
The voice said, “Sure, follow the driveway up to the house.”
A motor started to whir and the heavy gate started moving. Emmy and I rode down the winding driveway until a nice ‘chateau’ style house appeared. We just made it near the door when the door opened and a lady came out, followed by a huge specimen of St. Bernard.
A quick check told me it was a male and I said, “So this must be the sire? By the way, my name is Robert and this is my girlfriend Emily.”
It’s nice to meet you, I’m Nancy and you’re right this is Angus, the proud poppa of an eight pup litter. Come on in and you can see the pups and meet Gretel, the momma.”
We followed Nancy out to a fenced in yard and saw the big female watching over the eight pups as they played in the grass. Gretel turned her head to check us out then looked back at the pups. I said, “Years ago, my parents had Saints. I love them as a breed. Can I approach Angus?”
She said, “I’m glad you know dog protocol, Robert. You’d be amazed how many people approach him without asking first.”
I walked over to Angus, offered him my hand and then scratched the back of his neck as I said, “I love the rough coat Saints, my parents preferred the smooth coat variety.”
Emmy said, “May I?”
Nancy said, “Of course”
After sniffing the back of her hand, she scratched the huge dog behind the ears and he just sucked up the attention.
While Emmy was playing with Angus, I said, “How old are the pups now?”
“They’ll be eight weeks old on Monday”
“So they’re pretty much ready to go. Are they weaned and have all their shots?”
“Yes and they all have been checked for hip dysplasia and have RFID chips, too.”
“Are you interested in a pup?”
“I miss having a dog and I wasn’t too interested in getting one while I was living by myself, but I think I may have talked Emily into moving in to my house with me.”
“Do you have room for a dog that could end up the size of Angus?”
I said, “He is an exceptionally big St Bernard. I’ve got a big house built on three lots. None of the yard is fenced in, but I would be building the dog a proper kennel if I get one although I’m sure he, or she, would be an indoor dog. Are they all the same price?”
“We’re getting six-fifty for the males and seven-fifty for the females. They are AKC registered and the sire and dam both come from champion pedigree lines. Would you be showing the dog?”
“I’m not sure, that’s a time consuming and expensive proposition. I know I will be giving them obedience training – a dog that size HAS to be well trained. Can Emmy and I get close to Gretel and the puppies?”
“She’s a very gentle dog.”
We all went into the little knee-high pen Gretel and the Pups occupied and we both let her check us out before looking at her puppies. Nancy excused herself to run to the house to get something for the animals.
Emmy said, “Oh, Rob. These dogs are so precious! Look at the one that’s mostly brown! I just want to cuddle with it.”
I said, “They’re all good looking dogs. I’ve never seen a whole litter of pups where each and every one had a symmetrical ‘mask’. I wish we could have them all.”
Emmy looked at Gretel and said, “Probably not when they all got to be her size. Can you excuse me for a minute? I need to ask Nancy if I can use a restroom.”
I said, “Sure, Baby. I’ll wait here and play with the puppies!”
I kept gently playing with the dogs and Emmy went into the back porch where Nancy had gone. It was only a minute before they came out again and Emmy said, “Are you about ready to go, Baby? We don’t have that much weekend left.”
I said, “Sure Emmy. Just let me give all these cute puppies a kiss goodbye first.” I paid a little attention to Gretel and each of the pups then left the pen, then added, “Don’t be too surprised if you see me back here, Nancy . The puppies are so precious!”
We both shook hands with Nancy at the front door and I gave her one of my business cards to leave her with the impression my interest was a little more than casual. Emmy and I headed back towards Melanie’s and I said, “I’d love to get one of those pups, they were so cute.”
Emmy said, “Why don’t you wait a week or two, we’ll be done with our classes soon and maybe you’ll talk me into moving in with you by then.”
I said, “OK. I’d have to build a kennel first anyhow.”
Emmy and I rode the rest of the way back to Melanie’s cabin, talking about the puppies and beautiful scenery and once we put the bikes back inside I said, “You know, I’m getting hungry!”
Emmy said, “What do you have in mind?”
I went down the list of what we brought with us; we decided to keep it simple for lunch and we ended up making grilled ham and cheese sandwiches along with a handful of potato chips and a pickle spear. We worked together in the kitchen making our lunch and decided to eat them out on Melanie’s deck on the patio table looking northeast with a beautiful view the two highest peaks in the range that made ‘Old Saddleback’.
There was a relatively small area of manicured land surrounding Melanie’s cabin before the thicket of Chaparral started. Oak trees were visible just beyond the scrub and I was busy enjoying the distant scenery when Emmy tapped my shoulder and pointed to the edge of the property where a pair of Mule Deer had just came into the clearing and were feeding on the woody vegetation at the edge of the clearing. Emmy quietly picked up her i-phone and took a little video of the animals. A noise off in the distance seemed to startle them and they scurried off just as we were polishing off the light lunch.
Emmy said, “Melanie told me that she’s seen Bobcat and Mountain Lions from her deck, too!”
I said, “That could be kind of scary!”
“That’s what I told her but she said, they’re rarely seen this close to human dwellings, they apparently prefer living deeper in the woods.”
We picked up our dishware and I said, “Care to enjoy the hot tub for a while?”
She said, “I’ve got a better idea,” then took my hand and let me back to the bedroom.
She had me sit on the edge of the bed and then stripped her tee shirt off in one slick motion, followed by the stretchy sport’s bra she was wearing beneath the tee. She then walked up to me and pulled my tee over my head, tossing it in a heap near where she had thrown her own.
After kicking off our shoes, Emmy pushed me back and lay down on top of me while we kissed. I couldn’t resist fondling her boobs a bit and once her nipples responded, I rolled us both over and began kissing and licking downward toward her chest. I twirled my tongue around her rapidly hardening nipples and she began to moan.
I began fumbling with the button on her jeans and she reached in vain for mine. I accommodated her by rotating my body around a bit so she could reach the button on mine without any further trouble. It was only a minute or so longer when we both managed to rid each other of the balance of our clothes and settle into a nice leisurely ‘69’.
I spent an excessive amount of time gently licking her pussy and sucking on her clit, the whole time she was giving me a masterful blowjob. As she became more and more animated, I began lightly nibbling on the tiny appendage and Emmy let my cock out of her mouth and said screamed as an orgasm washed over her. She grabbed my head and gently pulled it towards hers.
When we were face to face, she said, “I need you Robbie! Make love with me, please?”
I kissed her as I moved between her legs where she used a hand to guide my cock into her hot, wet opening and we began fucking with long, slow strokes. I could feel her fingernails raking down the length of my back in response to my thrusts.
She said, “Oh, Baby. This feels so good!”
I said, “It gets better every time.”
The sounds we were making quit being words about then and became more unintelligible, animalistic sounds. In order to stave off our orgasms, we decided to change positions. I rolled over and Emmy climbed on top of me and started riding me using moves I believe she learned from watching Shakira videos. This position allowed me to get at her boobs and the more aggressive my fondling became, the more she seemed to like it. At one point, without missing a beat, she leaned forward so we could kiss and her moves changed from the ‘grinding’ moves she used when she started to moves where she was moving up and down on me by only using her hips.
After our kiss, she looked in my eyes and said, “Doggie style? Please?”
I nodded and she got off me to assume the ‘all fours’ position. I got behind her and slipped my cock back inside her. I resumed fucking her with long slow strokes while looking at her perfect ass. She seemed to be trying to increase the speed and intensity so I grabbed her by the hips and started fucking her as hard and fast as I could. She quit supporting herself with her arms and rested her chest directly on the bed and one hand went under her where she began furiously rubbing her clit while we fucked.
The sensation, and view, was incredible and I was rapidly approaching the point of now return and I took what I thought might be a chance and brought my right hand down on Emmy’s right ass cheek, not hard enough to leave a mark, but hard enough to make it a little red. She moaned in response so I tried the left cheek as well, Emmy moaned even louder so I switched back to the right side again. I gave her more little smacks and we continued until Emmy’s moans became long, drawn out groaning.
She said, “Oh, Robbie, I’m gonna come!”
I said, “I’m with you, Baby. I’m ready, too.”
We kept going and when the ‘moment’ came, I plunged in as deep and hard as I could and erupted at the precise moment that Emmy screamed, “I’m coming!”
I smacked her on the ass one last time as I was sending streams of cum into her depths and she screamed, “Oh, yeah!”
Neither of us moved again until both of our orgasms passed, then Emmy pulled away from me, my heavy cock plopped out of her pussy. She rolled onto her side then pulled me down next to her.
We kissed and Emmy said, “I could count on one hand the number of times I came simultaneously with a lover. I’m so happy that two of those times were with you and two other times we were so close. I just know the sex is going to continue to get even better, although I can’t imagine how. I love you Robbie.”
“I love you, Emmy. I’m so happy we’re together!” We got up off the bed and I said, “How about that hot tub now?”
“Yeah, I’m ready now!” We grabbed a couple towels and I talked Emmy into a glass of the Chenin Blanc before going out on the deck and getting into the hot tub again. We sat there sipping our wine, watching the scenery and talking.
Emmy said, “So, this moving in together idea – are you sure? I mean REALLY sure?”
“Emmy, I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life!”
The hot tub was considerably hotter this time so we got out after a short time. We weren’t ready to eat yet, but we decided we wanted to work on a fairly elaborate meal, so we decided to plan a bit to make a really special meal to enjoy for what was most likely our last dinner at Melanie’s cabin. We went into the bedroom and got dressed again.
I told Emmy that I had brought our class recipe packet with us and all the ingredients to make Melanie’s ‘Yellow Fin Tuna with Wasabi’ and planned to serve it with some brown rice and a bag of frozen Chinese vegetables which included baby corn, broccoli florets, water chestnuts and Parisian carrots. She told me it sounded delicious then started finding all the vessels and utensils we would need for preparing our dinner. I agreed to grill the Tuna and Emmy said she would handle making the rice and steaming the veggies.
Emmy asked, “So Hon, what would you like to do after dinner tonight?
I looked over the living room and said, “I’d be open to the idea of firing up the propane fireplace, turning on the stereo and cuddling under a blanket on the couch with you while we talked about our future.”
“Ooh, I’d like that,” she said, then cooed, “Anything in particular about our future you’d like to discuss?”
“I’ve got a few topics in mind.”
“I’m excited about our future, Babe. It’s like reading a good book for the first time! Every time I turn a page, the story keeps getting better and better! When we met less than two weeks ago, I had no idea that I could fall so deeply in love this quickly. I don’t have a single doubt that we were meant to spend our lives together! So yeah, I’d love to cuddle and talk about it with you.”
Time came for us to start working on our dinner and Emmy started the rice first since it would take the longest while I went to start the grill and clean the grate. By the time I went inside to get the tuna steaks, Emmy told me the steamer was ready. She dropped the veggies into it just as I put the steaks on the grill. About three or four minutes later, I came in with the steaks grilled to perfection and Emmy had prepared the wasabi as well as doing the rice until it was light and fluffy and the veggies until they were perfectly steamed to that moment where they were hot but still crispy. We created, or at least tried to create a ‘Melanie’s on the Water’ worthy presentation, and felt we did a pretty good job. We added a couple more glasses of the Chenin Blanc along with a glass of water for each of us and enjoyed a delicious, romantic dinner looking out over the magnificent vista through the big bay windows on the back wall of Melanie’s cabin from the candlelit table.
It didn’t take much time to clean up afterwards so we went into the bedroom and changed into the sleepwear we brought, Emmy looked gorgeous in a ruby red satin camisole and panty set, I was wearing a set of satin draw-string PJ bottoms and a matching pajama top. When we got back to the living room, Emmy spread the blanket we brought back with us on the couch and found a ‘mellow’ rock channel on Melanie’s satellite radio receiver then turned the handle controlling the gas on the propane fueled fireplace and pushing the igniter button. Meanwhile, I got the second bottle of Champagne , two flutes and the remaining strawberries and chocolate and set them down on the cocktail table then joined my princess on the couch.
We kissed and told each other ‘I love you’ then I opened the Champagne and poured us each a glass while Emmy opened the containers with the berries and sauce.
Emmy asked, “This isn’t going to be a typical evening for us once we’re living together, is it?”
“Emmy, I’d love to spend evenings exactly this way as often as you like. That’s partly what I was hoping we could talk about!”
“This is a nice treat, but I wouldn’t expect all our evenings to be like this.”
“Sweetheart, you tell me what makes you happy, and that’s precisely what you’ll get. My sole goal in life for now and into the future is to make you as happy as possible! Something else I want to promise you, Emmy. I’m not one of those guys who is trying to tear you away from the life we had before we got together, so I don’t want you ignoring your friends or family just because we’re together now. Also, I want you to consider my house – or perhaps now, it’s finally a home, yours as well, so anyone you’d feel comfortable inviting into your house in welcome in mine.”
“Oh wow. I just thought of a couple phone calls I need to make. No one in my family knows what’s going on yet! I can’t see an upside to one of my family members or other friends dropping by John’s house unexpectedly. I’d hate for his version of the story to be the first one they heard, I know they wouldn’t hear the whole story, and I’m not even sure it would be the truth.”
“I can’t imagine him admitting how he’s been treating you and all the cheating he’s done, either.” I held up an imaginary checklist and crossed off an item before going on, “Do you love it up here as much as I do?”
She looked around and replied, “How could anyone not love it up here? Why do you ask?”
“Around the end of the year, I’m going to get a pretty decent bonus from work and as much as we both love it, I was thinking about using it for a down payment and buying a lot up here, then a few years down the road, build a cabin similar to this for us. What do you think?”
“It would be nice to have a private little getaway, but it has to be so expensive!”
“It would be fun doing some research though, right?”
“It doesn’t matter what we do, when we’re together, everything is fun! I thought that all that was missing from my marriage was intimacy but I know now that it was lacking so much more! I love you, Robbie.”
“I love you too, Emmy and I promise you that you’ll never feel our relationship is lacking in any respect. I do need to ask you something, though. Would you object to me spending some time over the next weekend or two to build a fenced in kennel outside the pool cage? After this morning, I’m more certain than ever that I’d really like to get a dog and with us living together, I think it would be a lot of fun.”
“You know what, I think I’d enjoy sharing a dog with you – I’d even be willing to help you build that kennel, I’m not afraid of a little hard work or getting my hands dirty. Then when it’s done, we can spend some time and find the perfect puppy. Maybe Nancy will even have one or two left, those were such cute puppies!”
“They were, just remember how big Angus and Gretel are and make sure you think you’d like living with dogs that big. They’ll be full grown in about a year.”
“Remember me telling you about my second dream, where we were walking a big furry dog?”
“Vividly, as a matter of fact, why?”
“Gretel could have easily been the dog in that dream. I’ve never had a big dog, but I’ve always wanted one just like her.”
“That’s one more thing off the list. Do you have any plans or ideas you’d like to discuss?”
She climbed on my lap facing me and said, “Just one,” then we kissed passionately. “We are going to have an incredible life together, aren’t we?”
“I promise you we will!”
She kissed me again then sat down next to me and we began feeding each other strawberries and drinking Champagne while we continued talking.
